They pay hundreds of millions to Joe Rogan, who was one of the vectors of getting young men into the far-right “manosphere” radicalisation pipeline. Were it not for him, and Spotify’s part in his reach, the US may now have President Harris.

They pay Joe Rogan, they pay Trump, they back "Europe needs AI" to lobby against the rights of EU citizen.

It seems the only people they don't are the artists on their platform.

I just looked into Deezer, but seems that they don’t pay artists well either. Have you considered Qobuz?

Still on Apple Music myself, but exploring option.
